Expert Report on Dog Orelha Says He Did Not Suffer Fractures Caused by Human Action

An expert report states that the dog named Orelha did not have any fractures or injuries caused by human action, even claiming no identifiable cause of death.

A forensic report conducted by the Santa Catarina police on the body of a dog named Orelha has concluded that there were no fractures or injuries that could be attributed to human action. The experts Igor de Salles Perecin and Paulo Eduardo Miamoto Dias reached this conclusion after a thorough visual examination of all the dog's bones. Additionally, the report affirmed that the cause of death could not be determined outright, leaving some aspects of the dog's demise a mystery.

The report specifically addresses claims circulated on social media and other outlets regarding the possibility of a nail being driven into the dog's skull. It confirms that no evidence supports this theory, as the presence of a nail would have resulted in a distinct circular fracture in the skull, which was not identified during the examination. However, the experts noted that while they did not find any fractures, they could not conclusively rule out the possibility of blunt force trauma to the dog's head.

This investigation into Orelha's condition has garnered significant public interest, particularly concerning animal welfare and potential abuse. The ambiguity surrounding the death of the dog raises questions about future measures to be taken for animal protection and the handling of such investigations. Despite the absence of definitive proof of human involvement, the report emphasizes the importance of continued vigilance against animal cruelty and the need for more investigations whenever similar circumstances arise.
